How to kill X System and start X again whilst being inside X.
Assuming you are ok with losing that active session and logging in
again, you could try ctrl+alt+bksp. Or restart the login manager as
super user. /etc/init.d/gdm restart in many cases.
Oh well i knew that(i must have elaborated before), anyways thanks Abishek.
I write a script to kill the existing X and start it again with some
different parameter, the problem is that if i run that script from X, it
will kill X first and once this happens, the child(my script) also gets
killed and thus X fails to start again.
How to i solve this issue?
How to make my script run above X ie. no way related to X as a child
process.
